Höfner HCT-500/2-BK Club-Bass
KeithDPhoto 28.02.2019
Service was as always fantastic from Thomann. Love the hofner and the quality I think is great. It is the contemporary so is heavier than the icon But I like that. I havent changed the strings for flatwound just yet as I like the roundwound. With the treble pick up off it has a great full sound. All round very happy and good price. Im looking at the Harley Benton HB-60 WB Now ;-) K

nice light weight bass
Georgios S. 08.01.2016
I have about 195-210 gigs a year. Needed a light weigh bass cause my back was killing me. This is so light! Looks great and surprisingly sounds great! Changed the strings to a bigger gauge for fuller sound and put a Kala thumb rest.

Bought to replace one that I always regretted selling some years ago, this bass was every bit as good as I remember from my old sunburst version. Quality sound from the German electrics combined with a superb finish combine to make this a keeper. My only gripe is that it comes strung with round wounds, but these were soon replaced with flats .

La plus belle basse du monde !
Laurent A. 25.10.2011
Basse légère, bien équilibré. Mais surtout avec un look d'enfer !!!
Parfaite pour un jeu en souplesse. Inégale en jeu d'attaque avec médiator.
(mais bon, si on choisit ce type d'instrument, c'est pour faire référence à un rock plutôt sixties et pas vraiment pour jouer du métal ... mais quand même)
Les connectiques des boutons sont un peu limites (j'avais d'ailleurs été obligé de la renvoyer pour réparation ... et le problème resurgit de temps en temps)
C'est ma première "vraie" basse ! (celle d'avant était un mastodonte qu'on m'avait donnée. Elle était impossible à dompter, difficile à jouer et elle me vrillait l'épaule au bout d'une 1/2 h) Donc un nouveau monde pour moi déjà !
Mais je n'ai jamais touchée une Höfner haut de gamme pour comparaison ...
